I haven't made it out for a couple weeks. Friday morning we are going out for the weekend to do some pheasant hunting. We are leaving pretty early so I will be able to hunt all day friday and because you can't pheasant hunt until noon, I will be able to hunt saturday and sunday morning. Depending on if we get our limit or not, I might go out in the evening. I also have a couple turkey tags so it looks like it will be a good weekend.

Sounds like a nice mixed bag weekend Schu. I'm going to sit tomorrow afternoon, sat, and Sun. May try a morning hunt one on Sat or Sun. Traditionally haven't seen a ton in the mornings in the early season on my lease, but with all of the crops out within 2 miles, may be just the right time to try it. And the wind will be right on Sat for the stand I would like to sit. NNW tomorrow, so i'll sit a new set that I feel is pretty promising. I've gotten pics of a good one at 7:05 at night a couple different days, which would put him at the NNW set still within shooting light, so we shall see!

Well boys things are looking up!!! Woke up this morning stepped outside and what did I see. Frost on the ground!!!! Temps were in the high 30's low 40'2 over night. Most of the farmers in the area that I hunt have been gettin after getting the crops out of the fields so hopefully that will put some more deer on the alfalfa field that I hunt on. Probably won't make it out again this week but plan on being back into a stand come monday morning. Hope all of you have a good weekend

Putnam congrats. That first one will be just as rememerable as the biggest one you ever shoot. Might be heading out in the morning all depends on how much sleep I get tonight. working this new shift is not equaling alot of sleep. nothing like getting off of work at 11:30 getting home by midnight and hopefully fall asleep right away then getting up at 4:30. Gonna atleast set the alarm and see how I feel
